This is a very tiny coin - at only 0.3g and 11mm

This Edward I farthing has the unusual reverse lettering LONDONIENSIS meaning " of London". It is dated to 1280-1281 and is part of the great recoinage.

The obverse is also highly truncated as you might expect - +E R ANGLIE, meaning EDWARDUS REX ANGLIE
Edward, King of England

That's a really cool coin, Bacchus2! The die engraver was certainly talented.
Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures
